Default how much wobble

while spinning my arrows last night (i have a pine ridge spinner) i placed a small dot on a hard object and began spinning. most all the heads arrow combos i tried stayed within the point i was spinning but i still noticed a very slight wobble or maybe it was just visiual effect! but the tips of the muzzys stayed right on the dot! i should be ok

You should have absolutely no wobble at all. Zero, nada, zip, zilch, none.

If you do the blades will catch air and steer your arrow in a different direction than where you wantit to go. It may be only a few inches at 20 yards or it could miss the target entirely.

I will say that bigbulls is right on the money. In the last month, I, too, have been messing around trying to get muzzy to fly correctly. I am shooting the 100 gr, 4 blade variety. After MUCH trial and error, I found that I just could not get absolutely all of the wobble out of the arrow. I spun the nock, everything. So, I got it to as close as I could get and started playing with different fletch combos. I found that a 4" feather, fletched on about a 9 degree helical will get the job done. They fly very straight, and flatter too.
